Florida Military Schools?

Hey peeps, I'm from Florida and looking into military school options. What are some of the best military high schools in Florida?

a year ago

Hello! Florida has several well-regarded military high schools that offer rigorous academic programs along with the structure and discipline associated with a military setting. I'll list a few here:

1. Admiral Farragut Academy: Based in St. Petersburg, this is a military-style boarding school for students from kindergarten to 12th grade. It offers a naval science program and is known for its excellence in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM).

2. Florida Air Academy: Now known as Florida Preparatory Academy, it's located in Melbourne. While it's not strictly a military school, it does have a Junior ROTC program and emphasizes values of discipline, leadership, and academic achievement.

3. Sarasota Military Academy: This is a public charter school, which means it's free to attend, although there may be a lottery for admission due to high demand. It offers an Army JROTC program and high academic standards.

Choosing the right military school depends on various factors like your educational goals, extracurricular interests, and how comfortable you are with boarding school versus day school. It's important to research each school thoroughly, consider visiting them if possible, and speak to current students or alumni if you can. That will give you a better insight into the school culture and whether it is the right fit for you.
